New text fields should compute maxlength considering composed character sequences.

Bumping to P1 since this causes a text field regression

Comment 2 Maciej Stachowiak 2006-04-02 23:25:36 PDT

These are all text field regressions so they should all be P1.

Comment 3 Darin Adler 2006-04-07 18:32:40 PDT

The API for this is in ICU, in <unicode/ubrk.h>. If we use a UBRK_CHARACTER iterator, then we can find characer boundaries. I think I'll tackle this.

I've got the fix for this written; just need to write some layout tests. I also fixed a regression where changing maxlength would not immediately truncate the value that's already in the text field.
